Through the challenges of 2020 comes a unique opportunity for churches to rise up and think through issues together. And if you’ve lost your faith over the last year, just know there is always a hope-filled conversation to have. 

Stories of overcoming adversity and bringing light to the dark are nothing new. But how we bring those teachings to life is what changes ours for the better. 

In this episode, I sit down with Pastors Michael Gamble and Dwight Edwards to talk about the response of the church during these trying times – and how opportunity brings us closer to divinity.

Show Highlights Include:

• Why the church’s response to the pandemic, politics, and racial tension starts at God’s table – and how to have the conversations that unite us now. ([3:34])
• What the history of Christianity reflects about working through hard times – and why this is beyond just reading sermons. ([8:30])
• The ‘Helmut Thielicke’ teachings about pain and how you can create divine opportunities from life’s struggles right now. ([16:28])
• Why walking in humility starts by surprising others – and how this makes you a more humble person today. ([21:10])

Do you have the drive to get out of bed each morning and live life with a fire in your soul? We’ve all got big dreams, but most people don’t know what it takes to reach them. Or even think their dreams are attainable.

And in most cases, people quit doing the things they love for a life of practicality and security. But why can’t you have both?

In this episode, best-selling author and professional speaker Dwight Edwards and I discuss how to find your purpose through passion and live your greatest life yet. 

Show Highlights Include:

• Why you should say no to “being vanilla” and what this means about living a life of purpose today. ([2:11])
• The ‘hunting dog’ approach to achieving your wildest dreams right now.  ([4:00])
• What John Grisham reveals about courageously living an epic life (without quitting your day job). ([7:30])
• Why the Prime Minister of England urges you to read the Bible and how this immediately relates to a life worth living. ([13:50])

Between politics and a pandemic, it feels natural to worry. But worrying can also make problems bigger and rob you of any perspective if it hangs around too long.

Learning to work alongside the unknown and things out of your control only makes life better for you and the ones you love.

In this episode, Dr. Rick reanalyzes what it means to worry and how you can transform it into unquestionable trust and faith during uncertain times.

Show Highlights Include:

• Why worrying strips you of thinking rationally – and how to remain calm and with common sense the next time you face a crisis. ([1:15]) 
• Why Jesus told people not to worry and how you can stop negative thoughts from robbing time and happiness in your life today. ([4:00])
• Why hope is never lost and the powerful results that come with trusting God (and the universe) right now. ([8:51])
• The “Philippians” way of changing hopeless thoughts into faithful lessons immediately. ([12:30])
